South Park has been terrible since the season that focused on Mr Garrison running for president. I watched the first two episodes of the presidential season and I struggled just to get through those. I even tried the pandemic episode after people telling me it was good and I just didn't find it funny. The first season with PC Principal was the last good season. I will try the new episodes if they appear on my IPTV but I am not holding out much hope.

I stopped watching at exactly rhw same time, coincidentally. It was just trying too hard at that stage. The Simpsons circled the drain well before that but is Family Guy still on? Haven't seen it for years, American Dad seemed to have taken over.

Simpsons for me was done after Season 9. Season 10 has some good bits but you can see the change in humour starting to happen. That was back in 98 even as child I knew it was turning to shit and it put me off the Simpsons for years. I only recently rewatched a couple of episodes from the early seasons and I was surprised at how funny they were.

Family guy for me was never that good I enjoyed the first few seasons as a kid but it just felt like they kept repeating the same jokes over and over again.

American Dad is a completely different story what a great show. I remember when it first came out I didn't like it then a few years later I came back to it and I still can't get over how funny it is Steve, Roger, Stan etc are just great. I haven't watched it in a couple of years just due to it not being on any services I have but I do have a lot of the seasons downloaded and will eventually get around to them since I recently bought a Blue ray player that I plug a USB into and play downloaded files off it.

I mentioned it either on here before or on the old forum but I can't understand how family guy and American Dad are made by the same person because in my opinion they are two completely different shows.

King of the Hill is another great animated show. Have that on Hulu and have been slowly making my way through the seasons again.

Interesting,I watched the first episode of American Dad when it came out and hated it, mainly because it was a carbon copy of Family Guy. Haven't watched it since though, it may have changed a lot.

American dad is far superior to family guy. The alien being the best character.

American Dad was/is great. Love King of the Hill as well.

Last full season of South Park I watched, having skipped loads, was the one with the consent forms, etc. Whole season was one long story. Thought it was great, but didn't go back to it after.

Thought American dad turned out at least as good as family guy but for the same reason as you it took me quite a while to come round to it.

I watched the covid ones and thought they weren't great and haven't really bothered with it since but I do go on a run of a season or two from time to time. I find if I don't take breaks from it that it gets old fast.

Does anyone watch the Simpsons anymore actually?

Doesn't get better than king of hill

Haven't seen king of the hill in about 20 years. Used to like it but just forgot

Finished Irma Vep last night. Not a series I can recommend, despite being utterly unique, and despite starring both Alicia Vikander  :-*  and Adria Arjona  :-*  :-*  A slog at 8 hours and a squandering by the director/screenwriter of his own good idea, even though he'd apparently been handed everything he needed to make it work.

Just finished "Black Bird" - Egerton and Hauser are both great in the lead roles as is Ray Liotta.

I know Liotta is playing a character who is ill in this show but he did not look well at all. Hindsight and all that.

Got stuck into Yellowstone after some comments on it and that Sheridan fella here.

Christ it's mad stuff. Like Dallas got raped by Game Of Thrones.
